Government cabinet of Canada (1896)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Seventh Canadian Ministry was the cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Sir Charles Tupper. It governed Canada from 1 May to 8 July 1896. It was formed after the 7th Canadian Parliament was dissolved, and lost the 8th Canadian federal election, so it never faced a parliament. The government was formed by the old Conservative Party of Canada.
